➡️ What are Ventilator Settings?
To give a brief definition, ventilator settings are the controls on a mechanical ventilator that can be set or adjusted in order to determine the amount of support that is delivered to the patient.
➡️ Ventilator Mode
Essentially, a ventilator mode is a way of describing how the mechanical ventilator assists a patient with inspiration. The characteristics of a particular mode control how the ventilator functions.
➡️ Tidal Volume
Tidal Volume refers to the volume of air that is inhaled and exhaled from the lungs during normal breathing. The tidal volume setting on the ventilator determines how much air is delivered to the lungs by the machine.
➡️ Frequency (Respiratory Rate)
Or, it can even be referred to as the breathing rate because this setting simply controls the rate at which breathing occurs. It typically refers to the number of breaths that are taken per minute and the normal range is: 10-20 breaths/min.
➡️ Fraction of Inspired Oxygen (FiO2)
This refers to the concentration of oxygen that is being inhaled by the patient. For patients with severe hypoxemia, an FiO2 of 100% may be required when mechanical ventilation is initiated. But your goal as a Respiratory Therapist should be to wean the FiO2 down to the lowest possible level that still provides adequate oxygenation.
➡️ Flow Rate
This setting controls how fast a tidal volume is delivered to the patient by the ventilator. The setting can be adjusted depending on the patient’s inspiratory demands. The normal inspiratory flow rate should be set at around: 60 L/min.
➡️ Inspiratory-to-Expiratory Ratio (I:E Ratio)
It refers to a ratio of the inspiratory portion compared to the expiratory portion of the breathing cycle. For patients on the ventilator, the normal I:E ratio is between 1:2 and 1:4. A larger I:E ratio may be delivered if a patient is in need of a longer expiratory time due to the possibility of air trapping.
➡️ Trigger Sensitivity
The sensitivity control is what determines how much effort the patient must generate in order to trigger a breath from the machine. And when I say effort, what I'm really referring to is how much negative pressure the patient must generate for the ventilator to deliver a breath.
➡️ Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP)
PEEP is essentially an amount of positive pressure that is delivered during the expiratory phase of the breathing cycle. It helps prevent the closure of alveoli in the lungs which allows an increased amount of time for oxygen exchange to occur.
➡️ Ventilator Alarms
A ventilator alarm is a safety mechanism on the machine that uses set parameters to provide alerts whenever there is a potential problem related to the patient-ventilator interaction.

Thanks a lot!very helpful videos
Mechanical Ventilation 101 Notes Ventilator Settings ( What it is = Ventilator settings are the inputs on a mechanical ventilatior that can be set or adjusted based on the support needed by the pt. This support is given through the form of oxygenation and ventilation) Primary Ventilator Settings 1.) Ventilator Mode (What it is= Ventilator Mode is how the vent assists pt with ventilation) (Main Modes = Assist/Control,used when full assistance is needed and SIMV,used when only partial support is needed) 2.) Tidal Volume (What is it = The amount of air that is delivered to the lungs by the machine) (Normal Starting Values= 5 to 10 l/min or 6 to 8 l/min of the pts ideal body weight) 3.) Frequency (What is it = Respiratory Rate,number of breaths taken per minute) (Normal Intia Range =10 to 20 breathes per minutes) 4.) FIO2 (What is it= The concentration of oxygen being Inhaled by the pt.) (Normal Inital Range = 30% to 60%) 5.) Inspiratory Flow Rate (Inspiratory Flow Rate,how fast a tidal volume is delivered by the vent) (Normal Starting Range= 40 to 60L/min) * Set to low,will result in pt vent dyssynchrony. * Set too high will result in decreased map,mean arterial pressure. 6.) I:E Ratio (What is it= Inspiratory portion compared to the expiratory portion of the cycle) (Normal Values = 1:2 and 1:4) *If you need to change the I:E ratio adjust the inspiratory time,expiratory time,tidal volume,flow rate and frequency) 7.) Sensitivity (What it is=How much effort AKA negative pressure a patient must generate in order to trigger a breath from the machine) (Normal Initial Ranges= -1 and -2 cm of H2O) 8.) PEEP (Positive End Expiratory Pressure,Amount of positive pressure delivered to the pt during the expiratory phase of the cycle) (Normal Inital Pressure = 4-6 cm of H2O) *The most common indication for PEEP is in pts with REFRACTORY HYPOXEMIA and those who have not responded well to high levels of FIO2 9.) Alarms (Common Alarams = 1.) High Pressure 2.) Low Pressure 3.) High PEEP 4.) Low PEEP 5.) APNEA 6.) High Frequency 7.) Low Expired Volume)
Thanku this was really helpful❤

Doc hello can i ask favor from you doc suffering from pn im a filipino doc
🗣Who else is having respiratory problems right now 😞
Can you make video for RPSGT exam( polysmnography technologist)
I would like to get a book for myself to learn about this ventilador where could I get a book to learn thanks 🙏🙏
Space suit math, venting from helmet, valves, micro pumps on belt ,hoses,link or on helmets.both, underwater gases, math, acupa tanks, a glass cage, air control on bed under it make.
Quick Question, are your normal values the same as the NBRC? I’m trying to study for TMC and CSE.
Where was PRVC and BiVent in the list of ventilator settings?
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
❤
I just fail my first test I need help
His name was Robert Paulson
hu
Thank you
Thank you
